Sadiq Khan’t?

Even a cursory review of the background of this oleaginous and arrogant politician, throws up serious questions about him. This information should have prevented him from even standing as a Labour candidate, never mind for the Shadow Cabinet! It speaks volumes about Labour’s candidate selection procedures! They after all did allow ‘honest’ Eric Illsley to fight his seat of Barnsley Central only for him to be exposed as a serious expenses cheat within days of the election!

R’Ed Miliband is going to have serious problems with Sadiq Khan, as his own judgement is now being called in to question because of his closeness to Khan. Sadiq Khan after all was R’Ed’s Leadership Campaign Manager.

Previously a whip, under the tutelage of the much disliked but effective, then Chief whip, Nick Brown, he was a good pupil by all accounts. Presumably, he knows where the ‘bodies are buried’ ! This may go some way to explain his rise, almost from nowhere! Some of his own ‘unburied bodies’ are presented below.

Expenses:

Khan is a three time expenses cheat, most recent case concluded just this week, with a requirement for refund of monies previously paid out against a fraudulent, re-submitted, previously rejected claim! The sum involved £2,551 and he has agreed to return it. Why is unemployment not the consequence for these calumnies?

Terrorist Links:

It has been reported that five family members plus a number of clients belonged to fundamentalist group Hizb ut-Tahrir. Hizb ut-Tahrir, the Party of Liberation. (See wikipedia entry) Banned by governments throughout the middle east because of, it’s links to terrorism, it’s view of muslim world domination and the establishment of the caliphate. This group is not exactly mainstream in muslim circles and have been the subject of much criticism, even by former members such as Ed Hussain or Maajid Nawaz of Quilliam.

He tried to defend 9/11 plotter, Zacarias Moussaoui. Moussaoui asked lawyer Sadiq Khan to represent him after being accused of being the ’20th hijacker’ but the Americans wouldn’t agree, leaving us to suppose they know something we don’t? See this in the Sun.

He defended Ali Dizaei the bent copper, successfully on this occasion, getting him off before he was eventually banged to rights and amusingly served part of his prison term in Wandsworth nick, in Sadiq Khan’s own constituency of Tooting.

I know that we expect our politicians to be hypocritical, but voting in parliament at 19:00 to close Post Offices then at 20:00 in a public meeting in Tooting High Street in his constituency, said he was opposed and was cheered to the rafters, really takes the biscuit! See this report in the Wandsworth Guardian.

This little lot and the fact that there are doubts about his security status*, should qualify him admirably for his role as Shadow Justice Secretary.

Are we about to see one of the shortest tenures in the Shadow Cabinet in history? We shall see!

Back in my day it was, ‘Reds under the beds’, we needed to be fearful of.

It now seems that ‘muslim extremists under the beds’ has become the order of the day in the modern Labour Party.

Notes:

*It has been reported in the press that Sadiq Khan has been investigated by among others, MI5, MI6 and by the CIA after Zacarias Moussaoui asked him to defend him. Jack Straw was involved at the time, perhaps he should tell us what he knows about this seemingly dodgy politician?

This post now seems to be of contemporary interest since he has been chosen as Labour’s London Mayoral Candidate.

Corbyn would cause extreme danger to the UK if he ever got any power and I have concerns about what he has said about certain terrorist organisations. I am against regime change wars, but the Nuclear deterrent has kept us safe.

Donald Trump would cause extreme danger to the US if he ever got any power and I have concerns about what he has said about certain terrorist organisations. I am against regime change wars, but the Nuclear deterrent has not kept the US safe.

That was because he was a solicitor and Ali Dizaei was innocent. Bent coppers in the Met tried to frame Dizaei for drugs and got caught leading to damages for Dizaei.

A Solicitor has to represent his/her clients even if they are guilty. I know Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliff’s Solicitor is now a Judge.
Should he be declared “dodgy” demoted because he defended Peter Sutcliff?

sba, what an absolute load of rubbish. Ali Dizaei was as bent as a butchers hook, forcing his way to the top of the Met Police by using the race card on every occasion he could, claiming he wasn’t promoted because of his race! Khan’s defence of this man was just as bent and don’t forget, Dizaei was eventually convicted and I believe sent to prison so your statement is a load of crap!
